Let’s Talk Chemistry!

Page 2: Let’s Talk Chemistry!. 1. The Atom  basic unit of matter  made up of protons, neutrons and electrons  the atom is neutrally charged (no charge) Helium

1. The Atom

basic unit of matter made up of protons, neutrons and

electrons the atom is neutrally charged (no charge)

Helium Atom: Atomic Number 2

Electron

Proton

Neutron

Page 3: Let’s Talk Chemistry!. 1. The Atom  basic unit of matter  made up of protons, neutrons and electrons  the atom is neutrally charged (no charge) Helium

2. Structure of an atom2. Structure of an atom

The nucleus of an atom:The nucleus of an atom: Protons are positively charged

Neutrons have no charge

Electrons: in constant motion around nucleus negatively charged

Atoms have an equal number of Atoms have an equal number of protons and electrons.protons and electrons.

4. History of the Periodic Table4. History of the Periodic Table

Mendeleev designed the first periodic table

He arranged the elements by increasing atomic mass

He left blank spaces according to similarities in columns of elements

Page 6: Let’s Talk Chemistry!. 1. The Atom  basic unit of matter  made up of protons, neutrons and electrons  the atom is neutrally charged (no charge) Helium

More history…More history…

Mendeleev’s blank spaces (or predictions) were elements that he claimed were not discovered yet.

As it turns out, he was right!!

Scientists later discovered the missing elements with the properties that Mendeleev predicted!

And even more history!And even more history!Moseley discovered the atomic

number

He organized the periodic table by increasing atomic number

This allowed for elements with similar properties to fall into place

An gave way to the modern periodic table
